"The importance of social interaction for learning has been clearly documented (Berge, 1995; Brown & Duguid, 1989; Fulford & Zhang, 1993; Gunawardena & Zittle, 1997; Kanuka & Anderson, 1998; Kearsley, 1995; Kearsley & Shneiderman, 1999; McDonald & Gibson, 1998; Moore, 1991, 1993; Nunn, 1996; Scardamalia & Bereiter, 1994). Social interaction allows the learner to reflect and reconsider, get help and support, and participate in authentic problem solving (Berge, 1996; Brooks & Brooks, 1999; Brown & Duguid, 1989; Lave & Wenger, 1991). A meta-analysis (Lou, Abrami, & d'Apollonia, 2001) evaluated the effect of social interaction in technology-based learning and uncovered important benefits for learners. Three of the more pronounced benefits for learners included improved learning strategies, greater perseverance, and reduced need for help from the instructor. These outcomes are especially important in distance learning because of the inherent difficulties with learning without the structure and motivational elements of an in-person classroom setting (Moore, 1991). Social interaction provides critical affordances for learners who are learning at a distance."

Open courseware has expanded to the extent that directories, lists, search engines, archives and Web tools are available free to anyone who chooses to learn through the Internet. The following list contains some individual tools, but on the whole, this list is filled with links to sites and pages that offer more links to even more resources. So, if you’re looking for an open source tool to create a video, go under “tools” below to find two links to sites filled with open source software resources. All links under the categories below are listed in alphabetical order. This alphabetical method of organization also shows that we do not value open courseware project over another.

Here are the tools I use or have used and resources that I own or found helpful for data visualization – starting with organizing the data, to graphs and charts, and lastly, animation and interaction."

"For those unfamiliar with the term, a learning style is a way in which an individual approaches learning. Many people understand material much better when it is presented in one format, for example a lab experiment, than when it is presented in another, like an audio presentation. Determining how you best learn and using materials that cater to this style can be a great way to make school and the entire process of acquiring new information easier and much more intuitive. Here are some great tools that you can use to <a href=">cater to your individual learning style, no matter what that is."

"Those of us that provide staff development around instructional technology have identified a need to share more than just tools with teachers. To evaluate them based on Bloom's Taxonomy is simply a way to connect the tools to those that would be identified with the Affective, Psychomotor, or Cognitive domains--specifically the Cognitive. The visual that you see here is the seed of discussion. There are other models in the section to the left called "Ideas for the Visual." I would hope that the critical analysis of what we've started here includes attention to the fact that we are building something from the ground up, starting conversations and collaborating around doing what's best for kids and teachers."

"Social bookmarking is a method for Internet users to share, organize, search, and manage bookmarks of web resources. Unlike file sharing, the resources themselves aren't shared, merely bookmarks that reference them.

Descriptions may be added to these bookmarks in the form of metadata, so that other users may understand the content of the resource without first needing to download it for themselves. Such descriptions may be free text comments, votes in favor of or against its quality, or tags that collectively or collaboratively become a folksonomy. Folksonomy is also called social tagging, "the process by which many users add metadata in the form of keywords to shared content".[1]

In a social bookmarking system, users save links to web pages that they want to remember and/or share. These bookmarks are usually public, and can be saved privately, shared only with specified people or groups, shared only inside certain networks, or another combination of public and private domains. The allowed people can usually view these bookmarks chronologically, by category or tags, or via a search engine."
